Hello fellow Lemmings! the first version of the haiku-bot is out! anyone can add or remove it in any community by simply mentioning him and asking to subscribe:
!Haiku-bot SUBSCRIBE
when added to a community, it will read every comment (not posts currently) and if he detects the 5-7-5 syllable pattern typical of haikus will reply formatting it in a nice way!
If it becomes too spammy you can remove it by just commenting:
!haiku-bot UNSUBSCRIBE
currently it can be subscribed and unsubscribed by anyone, but if this will result in a problem please let me know and I’ll allow only mods to do this! any problem, bug, suggestion, insult, anything you wish is welcome!
hope you’ll enjoy it!
I absolutely agree, that’s why I made it togglable by anyone who likes
If you agree that most bots are spam, then why are you making and promoting bots?
because most bots are spam doesn’t mean that all bots are spam. unrequested invasive bots are definitely spam, but bots that can be enabled or disabled freely do nothing wrong IMO
Okay - What value does a haiku bot add?
It only tells you that a post was 17 syllables…
so you are able to not subscribe to it or even block it if you want
You did not answer the question… I asked you:
How is a haiku bot not invasive spam?
It’s basically the same as the “all numbers in your post add up to 69” bot.
